Re: Finally! The new paint for my baby

Thanks alot but I would kill myself before I ever painted another car...I geuss it would probly be easier in a booth with the right stuff, but outside with no water filter and un even temperatures AND DUST...it was hell!

Re: Finally! The new paint for my baby

looks good, i imagine it's not a show car, plus you can save money without a booth. less perfect of a job, but looks like you did a good job with what you have. congrats

Re: Finally! The new paint for my baby

feels good to paint your own stuff though dont it? id rather paint my car in my driveway than spend my money to have some other guys paint my car. at least you can say YOU did it. great job.

oh and fix your hood gap lol. other than that it looks great.

Re: Finally! The new paint for my baby

Make sure you post some pictures once it's all back together. Even REALLY good paint jobs don't look all that impressive until everything is back together. However, it looks like it's going to turn out nice.
